No, you are just incapable of of seeing that you aren’t giving a good argument. You put up links that while they do show failings under democrat leadership, are not equivalents to the attrocities currently being committed.

I don’t like either party. I’m not a republican or a democrat despite having to be registered under one of them because my state is lame af. If there was a better one with a real chance of winning, I’d be voting for that one. I freely admit that democrats are a fucking joke overall. But pretending that they are as bad or worse than the republican party is a really obtuse take.

Because what you provide aren’t equivalent events at all. Looking at two of your three recent examples (I’m not going to tackle every single link you’ve put throughout this thread.) (And ignoring that the 3 things you provided here are not even related to the things I said)

In the case of children being left without representation, it happened, it’s heinous it was also infrequent enough to be a big deal as I do recall that issue. Now it’s happening frequently.

In the case of the national guard, that was ordered at a state level for riots , not by an overreavhing president for a peaceful protest, and never involved deploying marines in conjunction. On top of that his deployment of them was not immediate, though the gop pushed for them to be more immediate. There are legitimate times for calling in military support, such as when riots overwhelm local law resources.

You are putting up these sources as if they are equivalent and irrefutable proof of dems being worse. I am not saying bad things didn’t happen under them. I said from the start that they have their own share of fuckups. But I am saying that the total, frequency, and severity are incredibly less as well as the general responses to these failures being better overall. It’s such a stark difference, as to make your opinion that the GOP being a lesser evil insane.

If you spent some time critiquing the events you link in relation to current events you would see how flat it falls as a comparison. Yes, shit happens under every single government and candidate and party. But to sit here and pretend that the gop are the “lesser evil” is blind at beast and willful ignorance or a propaganda narrative at worst.

So when did the democrats send out ICE and DHS en masse country wide? Or how about when they deployed the Marines against peaceful protestors? Did the democrats do those things without my notice? I’ll be shocked.

Edit: Ooo let’s throw in a bonus of illegal cuts to NIH, purging of the vaccine panel, and gutting of multiple federal agencies and workers. I’m sure that all the people caught in those broad pointless layoffs sure are glad the fucking democrats weren’t in, they might have still had jobs!

Democrats aren’t without blame but the idea that republicans are a better option is an insane take. That you think we’d be worse off now had we had a Democratic president and congress is absolutely insane.

Do you consider those perks? I certainly don’t.

It has always had its perks.

Maaaaaan. Fuck. I really like Nexus Mods. Get ready for another enshittifying ride to the bottom.

Yeah the kool-aid is terrible. I mean come on! How do you fuck up kool-aid?!

I’m the same as you. No issues at all. Wasn’t till maybe 5 years ago I even got a minor tingle on my butthole.

Just say no. It’s that easy.

What sector of work? Some you can get away with being blunt, others not so much.

I’ve driven through Nebraska. I have some family there too. It’s an awful, empty place. Corn and dirt. Occasionally a manufacturer and a walmart. That’s it. It’s like depression manifest.

Because there is profit in child exploitation.

Hey, don’t let that push you further down. She shouldn’t have ever said that shit whether she feels it or not. That’s fucked of her.

I’m sorry you are having a bad time. Life isn’t meaningless, but sometimes you have to make it mean something. It’s hard and it can suck, it’s easy to lose your way and feel deep despair. But keep pressing on and chances are you’ll find people to be with that have no regrets. Learn to do things for you and take enjoyment and self appreciation for those things you accomplish. You can make it. You just have to keep putting one foot forward, even if it’s only a smidge.

It was a combination of things between policies and taking over folder and file permissions. I can look up the specifics I used if you are looking to replicate it. It’s a bitch to undo unless you write down everything you change.

I’ve disabled windows update completely so I can pick and manually dl updates. Never going to put that recall shit on my pc.

I can’t say I feel bad for them. I’m sure they have problems. But rich people problems always seem so petty when you compared them to the problems faced by people who are 24-7 stressed about whether their paycheck will cover their bills, or whether they are going to have a job if they say the wrong thing to their boss or a senior staff member. The trials that plague most of society are much more stressful than rich people problems. Just look at life expectations and you can see it. If some rich person wants to prove me wrong I will gladly let them switch places with me for a year and we can compare. Maybe I will learn something. And maybe they will understand the frame of their problems better…

No worries, happy to help. 🙂
